Why enter?

Community pharmacy is increasingly involved in outreach projects and initiatives, which aim to tackle health inequalities in the local area.

The award will be presented to a pharmacy team or individual, which can demonstrate recognition of health issues specific to their local community and which have subsequently launched a campaign, promotion or initiative, which has been designed to tackle those issues.

Who can enter?

This category is open to all pharmacists and their teams working in either independent or group pharmacies or practice based pharmacists, who have designed, facilitated or implemented health projects and initiatives to meet recognised local community healthcare needs.

All entries will be judged by an independent panel of experts, who will be looking for:

Provision of clear evidence as to how the specific health issue/s were identified

Evidence of clearly-defined project/initiative aims and objectives

Evidence of excellent customer care and commitment to the health and wellbeing of the local community
